Berlin, 1943: At Plötzensee, 20-year-old Liane Berkovitz is executed by the Nazis. Young love and her contempt for the Nazi dictatorship have made her into a resistance fighter with the Schulze-Boysen group. Decades later, an elderly woman is walking along the streets of Berlin; unkempt, with long, snow-white hair. Everyone who lives there has seen her, but barely anyone knows who she really is: a millionaire, and the first-hand witness of Liane’s momentous life.
